when gerard way sings “the broken, the beaten, and the damned” and when kermit the frog sings “the lovers, the dreamers, and me” they’re talking about the same people btw
Asexuals were always part of pride and it really fucking shows when people think it’s a recent term.
Although not going by the term “asexual” yet, asexuality was spoken about alongside homosexuality as far back as the 1890s. Asexual history is just as vital to queer history as any other term and I’m so tired of watching us being treated like a new thing
when i was a teenager it felt very revolutionary to be cruel to myself. like some kind of slow passive protest against how much everything hurt. i starved myself of sleep and food and tenderness because it felt right. it felt sharp and angry and radical and i wanted to be those things. adulthood is the realisation that the world is already working to cut into you well before you learn how to do it yourself. caring for yourself and others is the real protest
god idk if i can find the post about how all the characters have similar lines, like how prav and miles both say i can do both, how hobie and Peter b both think that miles’ suit looks like he’s bleeding from his armpits, etc etc but there’s also the beginning part where miles is like why does everyone say atm machine, the m stands for machine and prav being like chai tea is TEA TEA ugh idk i love their parallels like yes they are all tied to each other in specific ways differently but THEY ARE ALL TIED TOGETHER
